I think the last feature I was missing was the ability to see saved comments. With the latest update I would say the app is feature complete. Thank you so much for this.

Thanks for the kind words, we really appreciate them!

We're still hard at work to make even more improvements to Thunder as a whole, with a greater focus now on improving general performance and stability of the app. Thunder is still a project that all of us contributors (including me) work on during our spare time, so its nice to hear that others are using and enjoying Thunder 😄

I just wanted to say thank you for not making an Apollo clone.

I loved Apollo. It was a great app. But its UI seems to have short circuited the UI design of nearly every Lemmy app. If they don’t blatantly say they’re copying Apollo, it’s clear they are.

I like how you’re going in a different direction and trying new things. The Floating Action Button is a great example of trying to do something different.

Thanks so much to your dedication to this project!

Working on this project is all about learning (at least for me), so I like to explore different avenues for creating something without necessarily copying another existing app. Rather, I'd like to think that Thunder combines some of the cool and interesting features scattered across all the other apps into one place.

I've personally used Apollo, so you'll see some hints of Apollo's UI even here (swipe gestures is one of them) 😅 If you have some feature or idea that would be nice to have in Thunder, you're always free to open up a new issue on GitHub!

What about automatically hiding read posts?

You can hide them with a press of a button(purple one), I like that it is not automated

I too like that it's not automated :) Btw the best client for lemmy. Matter of fact I'll advertise it and add it to my bio. Thankyou devs
